SCHOLAR RESPONSES:

Why did you choose to attend the University of Maryland, what makes this place special to you and what is your favorite part of being a Terp?

My family has a strong connection to the University of Maryland, as both of my parents and their families grew up in the area, and multiple family members have graduated from UMD. Most recently was my brother, who is three years older than me. From the time he began looking at schools, UMD quickly became his top choice, as well as mine once I started doing my research. Once I heard that I was not only admitted to UMD, but was also admitted into the business school, I instantly knew where I was going. I didn’t even need to learn to root for new sports teams, as I was already a huge UMD sports fan, and had plenty of clothes to look the part.
